A lot of the same vehicles built in various factories used identical components. This means failures are more common than you think. You can buy a power steering pump for Ford Taurus cars right here at Auto Pros USA. Diagnosing Taurus Steering Problems Can you see leaking fluid?

To change the Taurus power steering pump, you will have to remove the serpentine belt. There are two pulleys that the belt is wrapped around. You can and should check these for proper rotation.
